urgent - couriers that deliver saturday

sorry not to post on courier thread
Have had a question about an item someone wants to buy today for it to arrive tomorrow, needs to go by courier.
Can anyone recommend a courier that definitely delivers Saturday? Interparcel will collect today via UPS, guaranteed next working day delivery, but don't know whether they deliver on a Saturday.

Yodel do through the HDNL side but not all depots do Saturday deliveries.
Although if you have a look on parcel2go, you can specify a Saturday delivery and it'll give you the options for which couriers will deliver.0 -
can't seem to get it to work on parcel2go, but looking around guaranteed sat delivery looks like £20 plus, far too much for this item. Have just added a 24 hour delivery and told them it's not guaranteed. Waiting for the email after buying now "where's my item you said it'd be here Sat"...

Saturday delivery is usually at least £10 more than the standard price. You could have a look at RM Special Delivery Saturday Delivery0

chickaroonee, if on your https://www.interparcel.com quote you look down the list to the timed services section, somewhere in there is TNT saturday, which I would recommend over the other saturday service, citylink saturday, or you can book saturday delivery on https://www.ipostparcels.co.uk, see which is cheaper.
The interparcel TNT service has to be booked by 14:00 if you want it collected today0 -
Royal Mail Special Delivery will guarentee Saturdays for an extra £1If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, its just possible you haven't grasped the situation

Well cheeky !!!!!! never even replied after I tried various different options for him!! Apparently I was to get back to him urgently so he could buy it..
Why is it the ones who contact you saying that are always the ones in then don't buy?!?!

I'm afraid it is more than that - between £3.79 and 7.24 extra according to the weight.2nd_Time_Lucky wrote: »Royal Mail Special Delivery will guarentee Saturdays for an extra £1
This is one of the services affected by the VAT changes. Normal SD has no VAT but the Saturday prices include VAT.0 -
The problem with citylink saturday is I've had a couple of incidents where they don't even attempt saturday and just deliver on the monday!!! That's why I usually pay the extra for TNT or UPS when I need stuff delivering on a saturday0
